2017 quick overview

Market growth driven by the Americas and Power & Renewables
2017 was a positive year for infrastructure debt in terms of volume ($240Bn and + 10% vs 2016) thanks to the Americas (+ 57% vs 2016) and Power and Renewables (+ 42% vs 2016).

Power & Renewables reached a peak in volume
Since 2008, Power and Renewables have been the major sector in the market, following the decline in public orders in transportation and social accommodation. This trend continued in 2017. Power and Renewables’ transactions reached their highest point ever, at roughly $120Bn (49 % of the global market), largely due to Renewables, which reached a peak at roughly $62Bn (21% of the global market).
